Clouds, Ocean and Beach at Normandy

Merrilee Drakulich Contemporary Paintings

This oil painting is of a view from Normandy Beach in France.

When travelling to Normandy, France, my impression was of a sky and ocean with the most beautiful and ever-changing light I had ever seen. The light and colors of the sky seemed to skip along the water.

Besides the intense light, the sky was ever-changing. One minute it could be raining, and the next minute beautiful clouds would build up along the horizon.

Using oil paint, I painted this scene on a 48-inch x 30-inch canvas mounted on a 1.5-inch-deep stretcher frame with the sides of the canvas painted. The painting is signed and dated on the back (2016).
